ABOUT FOCUSED ENERGY Focused Energy is a pioneering fusion energy startup committed to generating unlimited, clean energy to responsibly meet future global demand. By commercializing laser-induced inertial fusion, we are bringing a highly efficient and sustainable power generation technology within reach—enabling a secure and scalable energy future.   ROLE OVERVIEW We are seeking an Engineering Delivery Lead to elevate and drive engineering practices across Focused Energy. This role operates within our Core Engineering group, working across mechanical, electrical, and controls disciplines—not confined to a single technology vertical. You will ensure engineering activities are consistently structured, integrated, and delivered from concept through commissioning.   This is not a traditional project management role. Instead, you will define, implement, and enforce engineering delivery processes, working cross-functionally to ensure: - Clear and actionable requirements - Controlled and staged design progression - Robust interface and system integration management - Consistent and disciplined execution   You will be the execution engine of Core Engineering, bridging engineering delivery with organizational structure and ensuring engineered systems are not just designed, but fully built, integrated, and operational.   KEY RESPONSIBILITIES Engineering Execution & Delivery - Lead the delivery of engineering-driven projects (e.g., facility systems, infrastructure, integration platforms, test systems) - Guide projects through structured stages: requirements → concept → design → build → commissioning - Drive accountability for consistent, on-time engineering delivery across teams   Engineering Process & Standards - Define and implement Core Engineering ways of working, including: - Stage-gate processes - Formal design reviews - Documentation standards - Interface definition (ICDs) - Ensure standards are consistently applied across Mechanical, Electrical, and Controls disciplin
